More on Nessebar, Bulgaria

What can I summarize about Nessebar?  I have visited the place more than once or twice in my visits back to Bulgaria.  As far as I understand, the town used to be a fishing village in the 19th century….The history of the place dates back way back to the Roman and Byzantine Empires.

Today Nessebar is one of the well developed beach resorts in Bulgaria.  You can find here both modern hotels as well as rent a room or a complete old house / villa.

If you rent a house/appartment, you can get deals in the range of US$50 (for 2 people renting an appartment in the new town) per day…or US$60 for 3 people for an appartment.  So you can get a good deal.

Then, there is the new trend — buying a holiday property in Bulgaria.  To give you some idea, a 2-bedroom appartment about 60 square meters / 600 square feet, will set you back about 40K euros.

At the same time a similar appartment further south along the Black Sea coast — in Sozopol (a place I like as well) will be slightly more pricey — at about 45K euros.

Then for a comparison you should consider a similar size appartment in one of he major cities of Northern Bulgaria - Pleven.  There the prices are in the range of 20K to 30K euros (approximately)….So, the Black Sea coast is a desirable place…
